Lucky blow tripod bugged on serendipity skill, arcanist

As title says, the lucky blow tripod “Each Stacking stack grants a 20% chance that Ruin’s Crit Damage is +450.0%” isn’t working, I’ve been playing arcanist for 2 weeks now, and ruin damage has not once been higher at 4 stacks on serendipity than it has on celestial rain or secret garden, infact majority of the time it’s less damage

I could be miss understanding how the tripod works, but could this be passed along to see if it’s bugged or not?

Serendipity’s core weakness is it has substantially lower damage than Celestial Rain and Secret Garden. If you get lucky with Piercing Strike its damage approaches Celestial Rain’s, but that’s a coin flip.

Edit: Here’s what Lucky Blow does, first image with it on and second without, and I took off Piercing Strike so that that wouldn’t complicate things.


Ah so it’s legit not worth using if any of my other red skills are off cooldown?

Yeah, Serendipity is your backup. It’s better than Secret Garden if you get the proc, but it’s not reliable enough to be something you prioritize.

I’m getting higher damage every time with secret garden aswell, my max I’ve hit with serendipity is 10 mil, 14 mil with secret garden and 18.5 mil with celestial rain

I’ve definitely seen higher hits on mine than Secret Garden, but that might be tripod/gem level differences.
